Bus/Financial - Law: Contract(s) / General framework agreement for provision of services | | Swedish term or phrase: Part (legal translation standard) | I need some help on determining what is the field standard for translating "Part" when it appears in a sentence such as:
1. "Part förbinder sig att iaktta sekretess och att inte till tredje man utlämna konfidentiell information"
It is clear to me that the term refers to the parties of the agreement. I also think it's clear from context that this particular sentence applies to BOTH parties. But should it be translated as:
The parties
Both parties
Each party
Either party
and
2. "Med konfidentiell information avses sådan information som part uttryckligen angett ska utgöra konfidentiell information"
Here I unsure whether to go for
The party
A party
The parties
Either party
etc.
I'm sorry if this is unclear, would be very grateful for any advice as I've come across this a few times. |
